    Copper-doped zinc oxide nanoparticles were successfully synthesized by grinding copper acetate and zinc acetate powder with different starting molar ratios in combined with sodium hydroxide. The effect of initial copper and zinc molar ratios on the product samples was investigated and discussed. Relevant ligand coordination type of reactant acetate salt precursors and product samples were investigated by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The particle shapes and surface morphologies were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). Phase structures of prepared samples were studied by x-ray powder diffraction (XRD) and x-ray absorption near-edge spectroscopy (XANES) was applied to investigate the local structure of Cu and Zn environment atoms. The results demonstrate that the, particle size of as-synthesized products affected by copper concentration in the precursor trend to gradually decreases from nanorod shape with diameter around 50-100 nm to irregular particle structure around 5 nm associated with an increase in the concentration of copper in precursor. Moreover, it is noticed that shape and morphology of the products are strongly dependent on Cu:Zn ratios during the synthesis. Nanocrystallines Cu-doped ZnO by the substitution in Zn site with a high crystallization degree of hexagonal wurtzite structure were obtained. This synthesis technique is suggested as a potential effective technique for preparing copper zinc oxide nanoparticles with various atomic ratio in wide range of applications.

    Copper doped zinc oxide nanoparticles (Cu doped ZnO NPs) has been prepared by co-precipitation process using zinc nitrate, copper nitrate and potassium hydroxide as zinc, copper and hydroxide precursor, respectively. All of prepared conditions were fixed as the concentration of copper in zinc oxide about atomic percentage at 2%. The prepared powders of Cu doped ZnO NPs were studied with various post-sintering temperature at 500, 600 and 700 °C. All of samples were characterized using X-ray Diffraction (XRD), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FT-IR). The EDX spectra showed the qualitative and quantitative elemental composition of prepared material, meanwhile, XRD peaks represented Cu doped ZnO NPs in hexagonal wurtzite structure. The improvement in crystallinity of Cu doped ZnO NPs could be performed by sintering process. Moreover, the SEM and TEM images showed that the Cu doped ZnO NPs were condensed to the larger particles size by the increase of sintering temperature. Finally, the FT-IR spectra showed a broad absorption band for all of samples.
